So, my yard is full of dandelions, and I would love to cast one in a resin sphere. I keep seeing posts that we have to dry out flowers in a book, but I don’t want to flatten the dandelion. Do you have any videos or instructions for dipping a fresh dandelion in resin for casting into a sphere?

Hi Arielle,

You will want to dry the dandelion in silica gel beads: https://www.resinobsession.com/resin-resin-resin/how-to-dry-flowers-using-silica-gel-beads/ . You can then use it to cast in your resin paperweight.

Unfortunately, I don’t have a tutorial for that.
